Chapter 145 Uneasy
Fan Yao and Shu Wanwan came to the lobby, and everyone was happy to see Fan Yao wake up. Fan Yao thought about it and felt that he needed a suitable reason for his sudden fainting.
So she made up a story: "I recently had hypoglycemia, probably because of too much work pressure." After that, she didn't forget to add: "But I'm much better now, don't worry."
This reason didn't seem very reasonable, and Fan Yao felt a little uneasy. But she continued to speak with a brave face: "Actually, I have a small problem and sometimes faint. But this time it's really okay!" After saying this, she smiled widely, trying to convince everyone that she was really fine.
After hearing Fan Yao's explanation, everyone, though still somewhat concerned, felt relieved to see her in good spirits. After all, everyone feels unwell from time to time. As long as Fan Yao can recover, everyone will be relieved.
Shu Wanwan's lips trembled slightly as she listened to Fan Yao's nonsense. She hadn't expected Fan Yao to be so good at making up stories. But she still tried hard to suppress her laughter. After all, now was not the time to joke.
However, Yi Siyang, who was in the crowd, looked at Fan Yao thoughtfully. He always felt that Fan Yao had a familiar feeling, but he couldn't put his finger on why. This strange feeling made him even more curious about Fan Yao.
At this time, Shu Wanwan came over and patted Yi Siyang, who was watching intently. "Let's go. We still have things to do." She said softly.
Shu Wanwan had already greeted Fan Yao, and she didn't bother Fan Yao any further while she was making up stories to comfort the employees. She just left with Yi Siyang.
Ling Chuhe was about to return to the underworld. After all, as the judge of the underworld, he shouldered important responsibilities. Although he could occasionally leave his post for a period of time, being away for a long time might affect the normal operation of the underworld.
Therefore, although his attention to these matters did not cease, he was unable to devote himself to them wholeheartedly due to his duties. This was also a major reason why the investigation had not made much progress during his many years as a judge.
After they parted ways, Shu Wanwan and Yi Siyang got in the car together. Yi Siyang was focused on the road ahead, his expression calm and composed. The atmosphere inside the car seemed a bit dull, making people feel a little depressed.
Finally, Yi Siyang broke the silence and asked lightly: "How is it? Did you gain anything from this dream?" His eyes were always fixed on the road ahead, and he didn't seem to expect too many answers.
Shu Wanwan gently rubbed the beads in her hand. Her voice was light and no emotion could be heard. She simply replied, "Yeah."
Shu Wanwan's eyes also seemed a little empty, as if her thoughts had drifted far away.
The car drove to the next intersection, and Yi Siyang stopped the car, waiting for the traffic light to change. He didn't turn around to look at Shu Wanwan, but asked softly, "So, should we go back to your house now? Or should we go to the secret room and take a look?"
Shu Wanwan raised her head slightly, looked into the distance through the car window, and said in a calm tone, "Go home." There was a hint of fatigue in her voice.
Yi Siyang nodded, gently stepped on the accelerator, and the car slowly started, heading towards Shu Wanwan's house. Along the way, both of them remained silent, each immersed in their own thoughts. A quiet and depressing atmosphere filled the car.
Yi Siyang would occasionally glance at Shu Wanwan, trying to catch her expression, but every time he saw her face was as calm as water. Despite this, he could still sense that there was something unusual about Shu Wanwan, who had returned from Fan Yao's dream. She seemed to have an indescribable emotion, and this feeling made him feel strange.
No matter how carefully Yi Siyang observed, he could not accurately understand what that emotion was. He could only silently feel this strange feeling, but he had no way of understanding its deeper meaning.
Yi Siyang said nothing more, retracting his peripheral vision and focusing on driving. The car moved steadily along the road and soon entered the park of the large villa in the western suburbs. The scenery along the way gradually became familiar. Shu Wanwan's home was getting closer, but her heart was getting heavier.
"What will Dai Yan answer me next?" Shu Wanwan thought anxiously, but her expression did not change much.
Shu Wanwan's mood was very complicated. On the one hand, she thought that the woman who looked like Fan Yao was her aunt, and the first time they met was the last time, so Shu Wanwan felt inexplicably sad. On the other hand, she was worried that Dai Yan would tell her some unacceptable truth, or that Dai Yan was unwilling to tell her at all.
Shu Wanwan's thoughts were still wandering, but the car had already stopped steadily at the destination. She came to her senses and looked at Yi Siyang silently.
"What are you standing there for? Get out of the car." Yi Siyang looked at her dull expression and prepared to open the door and get out.
"Wait a minute." Shu Wanwan stopped Yi Siyang who was about to get off the car.
Yi Siyang turned around and looked at Shu Wanwan suspiciously, waiting for her to continue.
"Let's go around a few more times." Shu Wanwan looked at Yi Siyang.
Yi Siyang frowned, but said nothing. He suddenly understood what the strange feeling about Shu Wanwan was. It was uneasiness.
They have known each other for a thousand years. Although Shu Wanwan doesn't remember him now, he has never seen any emotion of uneasiness in Shu Wanwan.
Yi Siyang was a little worried.
Then he quickly started the car and took Shu Wanwan for a ride nearby.
"Why don't you ask me what's wrong?" Shu Wanwan felt a little puzzled when she saw Yi Siyang not saying a word, and asked this question without any reason.
"If you want to say it, just say it. If you don't want to say it, I won't ask." Yi Siyang said in a calm tone.
There was silence again, and neither of them spoke.
"Let's go back."
About an hour later, Shu Wanwan spoke up and said that it was time to go back and face it. She would have to face these things sooner or later.
In fact, there is another point. What Shu Wanwan fears most is that Dai Yan knows the truth but keeps lying to her, because she really treats Dai Yan sincerely, from the pavilion carvings in the mirror to accepting Ye Linfeng, and many more.
She was really scared. Compared to the conspiracy of the man in black robe, she was more afraid that the person she cared about would deceive and betray her.
But during this hour, she seemed to have figured it out. She thought about all the times she had been with Dai Yan. Dai Yan trusted her so much that she tied a red thread and gave her her life. How could she not trust Dai Yan?
Thinking of this, Shu Wanwan felt that she was not so scared anymore.
She wanted to go back, she wanted to talk things over with Dai Yan, she wanted to listen to what Dai Yan said, she wanted to stop letting her imagination run wild, she wanted to believe Dai Yan.
